| Description: Origin from North central Mexico (San Luis Potosi). The form of this plant is much like a trunk-less bear grass (Nolina), Caudex topped by perennial grassy looking silver-blue leaves, up to 3 feet long (90 cm) and expanded from a woody base. This swollen trunk is often exposed in cultivation by caudiciform enthusiasts. It withstood temperatures of -17 Celcius degrees, but its exact hardiness is unknown. Because of its extreme drought tolerance it makes a great container plant for light shade to full sun, or is an excellent foliage accent to the dry garden in warm regions. In our our webshop you can check the availability of this plant. |
